[Echotomography in hepatic hydatidosis]
Acta Gastroenterologica Latinoamericana
|January 1, 1986
Abstract:
Ultrasonography, we found as a good diagnosis method for echinococcal hepatic cysts. We studied by U.S. 11 patient with a mass hepatic syndrome. Hepatomegaly was found in 4 patients. In all those cases, a liquid formation (echo-free mass with well walls defined) was seen. Ultrasonography (U.S.) give us an exactly localization topographically of the cysts.

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System II:Types of Echocardiography
Echocardiography plays a role in assessing cardiac health and detecting heart conditions, with various types providing critical insights for diagnosis and treatment.
Types of Echocardiography
Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE)
TTE is the most common type of echocardiogram which involves placing a transducer on the patient's chest, emitting sound waves to create heart images. TTE is invaluable for evaluating the heart's size, structure, and motion, making it particularly useful for diagnosing...
